Art Exhibit: To Be Honest and Dreaming - Photographs by Derek Hayes

This collection invites viewers to look beyond the surface, revealing wonder in the everyday and suggesting that dreams—honest and expansive—may be our truest lens on reality.

This exhibit can be viewed before an event, by chance, or by appointment.


Biography

Derek Hayes (b. 1977) is an artist working with photography. Born and raised in Ontario, Canada, Derek now calls Maine home.  

Artist Statement

There’s a local expression that someone who wasn’t born in Maine is “from away”.  I’m “from away” and the notion of seeing from the outside drives my practice.  I’m interested in examining themes of isolation and connection and our collective relationship with the passage of time. I value photography as a tool for noticing the familiar and showing its underlying peculiarity. I strive to make images that seem approachable at first glance, where mystery and the uncanny are revealed on closer reading and possibly unanswerable questions are pondered. My vision is rooted in realism, the world as it is offered, but my photographs merge reality with artifice and construction.

Meetinghouse Theatre Lab - Out of the Hat!

October through April, 2025 - 2026
Out of the Hat! - Readers’ Theatre Series

What’s "Out of the Hat!?” It’s a fresh, compact production with a rehearsal time of one day and performed that same night. The play, the director, the cast are all picked "out of the hat" so to speak -- this makes it fresh and exciting.

It goes like so ... we gather at 11:00am to read the chosen play -- many of us for the first time. After a first read, the director for the play retires to cast the show. Once done, the group works to put the play on its feet with the result being an outstanding and very fresh performance at 6pm.

Come to read and play at 11:00am or come to watch it that evening. Admission is free, although donations are gratefully accepted.

Interested in reading? We would love to have you! To read, you will need yourself, writing utensils, dark clothes, a potluck, energy and a penchant for fun.

Please message Meetinghouse Theatre Lab on Facebook or e-mail Cathy at cathyjohnson2012@hotmail.com if you would like to be a part of the day's production.

Art Exhibit: Paintings and Pottery by Mary Laury - Opening Reception

Join us for the opening reception of a solo exhibition showcasing the artwork of Mary Laury. This exhibit will be on display from November 5 to January 5 at Hammond Hall.

About the Artist

Mary Laury is an artist based in coastal Maine specializing in watercolors. She was the Executive Director of Schoodic Arts for All. She has now returned to her first love, teaching painting and drawing.

The dynamic nature and botanical subjects of Maine are Mary’s passions. You can see her paintings exhibited at various galleries along the coast of her home state. An experienced teacher, she has taught painting, drawing and dancing both in the classroom and in the field, for many educational programs. Back in 1999, Laury signed on to teach, painting, drawing and ballroom dancing at Schoodic Arts’ inaugural arts festival. A painter whose work was carried in at least six galleries, she went on to stage the group’s first visual arts show. She was hired as the organization’s first executive director. Laury says she will continue to teach painting and drawing.

Coffeehouse - Ghost I’ve Come to Know: Chilling Stories and Live Music
Oct

Coffeehouse - Ghost I’ve Come to Know: Chilling Stories and Live Music

Ghost I’ve Come to Know: Chilling Stories and Live Music about ghosts by Gordon Thomas Ward, singer-songwriter, author, and veteran paranormal investigator.

Did you ever wonder what’s on the other side? As a well-respected investigator of ghosts and hauntings for forty years and an author on the topic, Mr. Ward has developed a distinctive approach and body of evidence to support the belief in the survival of the human consciousness after death.

This program includes photos, audio recordings, developing theories, information collected from his favorite, historic, investigation sites, and the live performance of his spooky songs. This presentation will entertain you, offer a fresh perspective on ghosts and put you in the Halloween mood.

Gordon Thomas Ward is an award-winning, multifaceted artist who’s been wowing audiences with his adult alternative/folk rock songs. With four GRAMMY-balloted albums in the last six years, he’s worked with notable musicians such as Noel Paul Stookey (Peter, Paul, and Mary), Eric Troyer and Mik Kaminski (Electric Light Orchestra), and Kevin Barry (Jackson Browne, James Taylor). Gordon’s songs are crafted and delivered in the style of acoustic Neil Young, Jackson Browne, and Dan Fogelberg, and Skope Magazine says Gordon is “setting the gold standard for singer-songwriters for generations to come.” Gordon is also the author of Ghosts of Central Jersey, was a member of Haunted NJ and co-starred in the pilot film Paranormal Intervention.

Meetinghouse Theatre Lab presents: Same Time Next Year by Bernard Slade

A highly acclaimed success on Broadway, running for nearly 1500 performances, receiving many nominations and winning Outstanding New (American) Play in 1975, Bernard Slade’s Same Time, Next Year was praised for its witty script, and ability to blend humor with emotional depth. 

Same Time Next Year is a play about a couple, George and Doris, who have a one-night stand in 1951 and decide to meet at the same place, a California inn, every year for the next 25 years. Both are married to other people, but their annual rendezvous becomes a significant part of their lives, allowing them to share their personal and professional lives, and mirroring the changing social and political landscape of the time. 

Same Time, Next Year  remains one of the most popular romantic comedies of our time and one of the most widely produced plays in the world.

Please join us as Tim Pugliese (George) and Melissa Burkart (Doris) bring this wonderful script to life under the skillful direction of Shari John.

PG-13 (Adult theme/some adult language)

Directed by Shari John
